    For crying out loud, leave people alone. I don't know what's driving this extremely weird "you're being too cautious!" lecture circuit, but if people want to ease themselves into things slowly, leave them alone.

    It's very difficult to know what constitutes rational behavior during a pandemic like COVID-19 so there's a a limit to how much you might judge anybody's choices. But I'd argue one sign of *irrationality* is if a person doesn't change their behavior much after being vaccinated.

    Man I keep a pretty positive attitude, but when I listen to John Prine’s 2018 album and know, beyond any doubt, that he had the most incredible songs still in him waiting to come out if it hadn’t been for 2020, the grief is bitter.
